The map above comes Open Street Maps Cycle layer and shows how much denser the cycling network is in The Netherlands and Belgium compared to France, Germany or the UK.
From Wikipedia, on the Netherlands:
“Some 35,000 km of cycle-track has been physically segregated from motor traffic, equal to a quarter of the country’s entire 140,000 km road network.”
With “36% of Dutch people listing the bicycle as their most frequent way of getting around on a typical day.”
Why do you think cycling has taken off in the Netherlands and Belgium compared to neighbouring countries?
